Feel that? Yeah, boy. It’s almost here. The summer season is peaking around the corner with that come-hither look! When the season rolls around and the BBQ grill gets fired up, nothing complements those smoky, savory flavors quite like the perfect glass of wine. Yeah. I know. Beer and Claw are often the go-to beverages …

Peach Baby Back Ribs and a Finger Lakes Riesling

JR — Wed, 17 Jan 2024 17:58:41 +0000

Remember when I wrote about the peach pork ribs I made? That was child’s play. This past weekend, I followed a recipe that took the peach flavor up a couple notches and left no doubt what the dominant element of this dish is. Max-Peach Ribs My lack of culinary originality is well documented. I stand …

My New Year’s Eve Main Course: Smoked Herb-Rubbed Duck

JR — Mon, 01 Jan 2024 18:56:47 +0000

So here I am, drafting this here blog post, looking to link to a previous post I did about the first time I smoked a whole duck. Lo and behold, I could not find it. But there’s a very good reason for that – it doesn’t exist. I guess I committed the cardinal sin against …

What I Did with My Leftover Turkey: Smokey Turkey Sliders!

JR — Mon, 27 Nov 2023 22:24:54 +0000

I know I’m not exactly unique in this respect, but probably the second best part about Thanksgiving (the first, of course, is spending time with loved ones, making memories… all that crap) is the leftovers. Every year on the day after Turkey Day, I make myself a big friggin sandwich with turkey, lettuce, tomato, bacon, …

Nice Rack… of Delicious Smoked Chicken Drumsticks!

JR — Mon, 23 Oct 2023 14:14:51 +0000

I ain’t one to cook drumsticks too often. I did do it in this instance, but really haven’t ventured into drumstick territory since. However, a few months ago, I bought a rack specifically designed to hang chicken drumsticks as they cook. I meant to use it sooner, but… yeah. I don’t know. But, for whatever …

Getting Straight to the Point: Burnt Ends and Slice Sandwiches

JR — Wed, 18 Oct 2023 20:28:55 +0000

Football season is what I live for. It’s the perfect excuse to fire up the smoker and create some fun, crowd-pleasing grub. I’ve wanted to create something for game day that was brisket-centric for a while now – specifically burnt ends. What’s a better finger food with a tender, beefy, fatty taste, am I right? …

Football season is in full swing, and during this time of year, I often lean on one of my favorite foods to bring happiness among my family as we watch the gridiron battles play out on the big screen. I’ve done traditional pork ribs a bunch of times, applying generous layers of rub and glazing …

Grilled Swordfish & Pineapple Salsa? Yes!

JR — Tue, 20 Jun 2023 18:56:55 +0000

If you’ve read my stuff for a while, you probably know that most of the food I cook is smoked, and is usually some sort of land mammal. Not always. There’s been the grilled dish from time to time, as well as a seafood recipe here and there. But for Christmas, I got a barbecue …

Tender, Delicious Honey Peach Pork Ribs

I’m a creature of habit. I like what I like, and it’s hard to get me out of my comfort zone a lot of the time. But every now and then, I see a video or read a recipe that inspires me to divert from my usual routine. A Peach of a Meal Such was …

Mouthwatering Beef Ribs and Buena Vista Wine

JR — Sun, 21 May 2023 15:01:44 +0000

I think I owe an apology to all of you, my adoring fans (or at least fans who have a baseline respect for me). The last almost-two years have been quite the whirlwind. I got a new 9-to-5 and moved to a new location – now nestled snuggly in the Hudson Valley, NY. With the …
